With notices being sent out to app developers around the globe, it looks like Google is about to cull a whole heap of apps that don’t meet the terms of its User Data Policy .
In particular, the message has been sent to developers whose apps request “sensitive permissions (e.g. camera, microphone, account, contacts, or phone)” but don’t have a valid privacy policy. The notice asks that a link to such a policy be provided in the Store Listing page as well as in the app itself, or alternatively, that the app-maker remove these sensitive permissions from the app altogether.
Developers have been given until March 15 to comply with this request, at which point Google will either limit visibility of offending apps, or remove them altogether. Presumably, this would mean a mammoth mop-up of millions of dead apps – many of which haven’t seen any sign of development in years – that will hopefully lead to a cleaner and less-cluttered marketplace, maybe even rivalling the tidiness of Apple’s App Store.
Making it easier to sear

Very necessary

Let the sanitation occur.

Firsted. A welcome development before some of this useless apps will sell is out to the wrong hands

They need to do that.. Too many useless apps dey there. Just like refuse dump

Ohh.. That will be nice. Some of those apps are just like bugs. Controlling my phone as if they bought it for me. My wifi and gps keeps turning itself on. Very annoying i must say.

.

Let them remove Abeg. Junk ka zi nku that place

That's good, users don't mind paying for apps as long as they get what they pay for instead of junk adds and bloat wares not to mention viruses
